Why is lemmy.world defederating from hexbear.net? - Lemmy.world

What is lemmy.world doing defederating before hexbear even federates? lemmy.world/instances [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/0a9a04ae-5cb8-4809-b4bf-b0ea22219f3a.png] https://lemmy.world/post/747912?scrollToComments=true [https://lemmy.world/post/747912?scrollToComments=true] This is what it took to defederate from exploding-heads after being federated with them since the start of lemmy.world What evidence do you have of hexbear breaking the lemmy or citizen code of conduct? Has the criteria for defederation changed?

Lemmy is so much better than Reddit! Anyway, the admins of this instance are deciding what you're allowed to see, just like Reddit.

The point was never about deciding what you are or aren’t allowed to see, the point was being able to choose an individual instance where the moderation lines up with what you want to see or not see.

There isn’t even an admin statement yet about the reason, let’s just wait at least more than 40 minutes before pulling out pitchforks.

All I’m asking for is an admin statement.

Its been over 40 minutes since the admin said they would make a statement are you pulling out pitchforks?

But that’s the great thing about Lemmy - you can just go to another instance and continue using Lemmy if you disagree with some admins decisions.

What’s your complaint?

That is true and if lemmy.world wants to be a curated lemmy instance like beehaw.org they should be upfront about it

It's not exactly like someone being deplatformed from FB or twitter or whatever... if you want to read Hexbear you can just go to their site.
